Smoky Chipotle Guacamole

I love this twist on classic guacamole! The chipotle in adobo adds a layer of smoky flavor that pairs perfectly with the rich and creamy avocado. I will be demoing this recipe at the Downers Grove Park District Chilympics this Saturday at 12:30! After the demo, I will be part of the chili judging panel. Come out for some chili, beer and of course my Smoky Chipotle Guacamole!

Dice, chop and toss into a bowl!
